Identification of cost data inputs in Life Cycle Cost (LCC) of alternative road pavement types

Life Cycle Cost (LCC) is an economic assessment technique that produces outputs, which can be used to provide cost information to the LCC estimators, clients and researchers in facilitating them to compare the most cost-effective of mutually exclusive alternative road pavement types. LCC estimates t...

LCC estimates total ownership costs of the road pavement which connects the initial capital costs and future costs to produce outputs that can be used to identify potential cost saving and demonstrate value for money procurement.

The aim of this research is to enhance the quality of data input requirements for a comprehensive and reliable LCC estimation of road pavement types in Malaysian construction industry. The research focuses only on cost data inputs used in estimating LCC. The methodology employed for the research comprised a comprehensive review of related literature and Focus Group Discussion (FGD) with a group of panellists that have experience, skills and knowledge in LCC.
